RDUP-UP(1)
NAME
rdup-up - update a directory tree with a rdup archive
SYNOPSIS
rdup-up [OPTION]... DIRECTORY
DESCRIPTION
With rdup-up you can update an (possibly) existing directory structure
with a rdup archive.
rdup-up reads rdup -c input.
OPTIONS
-n Do a dry-run and do not create anything on disk.
- -t PATH
- Create PATH (ala mkdir -p) if it does not exist.
- -s N Strip N path components from a pathname. If the resulting path
- name is empty after this operation it is skipped. Be careful
however with the following structure:
/foo
/foo/bar
/foo/bar/bla.txt
/foo/blork/bla.txt - With rdup-up -s2 this will leave:
<empty>
<empty>
/bla.txt
/bla.txt - And the last 'bla.txt' will overwrite the previous one.
- -r PATH
- This option is related to the -s option, but works different. The string PATH is removed from (the beginning of) each pathname. With -r /home/backup the pathname /home/backup/bin/mycmd becomes /bin/mycmd. The same could be done with -s 2, but then you need to count the slashes.
- -v Be more verbose and echo the processed files to standard output.
- -vv Be even more verbose and echo processed file and the uid and gid
- information to standard output.
- -h A short help message.
- -V Show the version.
EXIT CODE
rdup-up return a zero exit code on success, otherwise 1 is returned.
